President Trump mocked climate alarmists yesterday in light of the freezing cold temperatures hitting the midwest.

“In the beautiful Midwest, windchill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded,” he wrote on Twitter. “In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming? Please come back fast, we need you!”

In the beautiful Midwest, windchill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded. In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming? Please come back fast, we need you!

The polar vortex is expected to bring a “dangerous blast of Arctic air” to the midwest, with Chicago expecting temperatures to hit 24 degrees below zero with wind chills around 55mph later this week.

Accuweather is warning that the cold temperatures could be life threatening for any person or animal without a proper way to stay warm. “In addition to the risks of frostbite and hypothermia, residents will be faced with high heating costs and the potential for frozen and bursting water pipes, dead car batteries and school closures,” writes the website.
